The fight takes place this Saturday night at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, as part of the Canelo-Angulo Showtime PPV undercard.

ricardo alvarez isn't anything special, i wouldn't doubt if he loses to Yeyo. Omar is a big light weight, i think he probably had a hard time making weight but was also sore from his hands bcuz lets face it…
